Okay, this blog’s a household show as well as all, however c’mon! You can’t expect me not to take pleasure in the perverted wordplay possibilities afforded by the new NARS Foreplay Cheek combination ($49).

Esileikki? four blushes, one of them a huge ol’ pan of Orgasm? Oh, François, you so crazy!

As a fellow diner at le buffet de beaute, you’re most likely well conscious of NARS Orgasm blush’s terrific reputation. makeup enthusiasts have been lavishing praise upon it for years, calling it a generally lovely peachy golden pink that looks excellent on just about everyone.

I wear it, like it as well as reach for it commonly in the NARS Orgasm/Laguna Duo, which I never leave house without.

Vakavasti. I don’t believe I’ve taken a trip without it when over the past three years.

Recognizing the product’s popularity, NARS made a decision to make Orgasm the primary meal in Foreplay, a new restricted edition cheek combination offered solely at Sephora.

The combination serves up a huge pan of Orgasm as well as three tasty sides — a matte rosy peach that reminds me of a sheerer NARS Amour, a matte hot pink that resembles a sleepy Mata Hari, as well as a shimmery golden yellow highlighter which, Hei! — has shine for days (starts off on my cheeks, ends up on my chin, weird!).

There’s been some rumbling about the blushes in Foreplay being different than their namesakes in the NARS long-term line, as well as I have to agree. The Foreplay Orgasm (did I truly just type that?), for instance, sure looks a lot more glittery than its long-term collection counterpart does to me, as well as the golden pearl shine bits look larger, too, as do the grains within the powder itself.

Heck, I can see the blush sitting on my skin, which is something I’ve never observed with my older pan of the huge O. The general impact seems a lot more intense as well as less natural than the impact I get with the Orgasm in the Orgasm/Laguna Duo.

Same goes for the shine bits in the shimmery golden highlighter. They’re big, as well as they have a tendency to wander.

I’m absolutely diggin’ both of the mattes, though, which remind me of Amour as well as Mata Hari, two of my preferred NARS blushes of all time.

Really, I like the concept here, the concept of getting a lot of different NARS blushes in a single palette, however provided a option between two full-size pans of NARS long-term collection blush for $56 (they’re $28 each) as well as the Foreplay palette’s four blushes for $49, hmm… That’s a hard one, however I’d most likely opt for the former.

Not that I believe these blushes are poor at all. On the contrary — I like the colors, level of pigment as well as all-day wear time, however I feel like there’s something a bit off about the textures, at least compared to what I’ve come to expect from NARS.

Dear Photograph…

Found my new preferred corner of the Interwebz. It’s called Dear Photograph. It’s a site where people share present-day photos that they’ve taken of crucial locations from their past.

Some of them are extremely touching. Each photo has a bit story that describes what the shot means. Warning: You may want to stay away if you’re PMS-ing… just saying.

In other news, I hope you had a great Tuesday. I’ll see you once again at the top of the hump!
